Teddy Weddy

Last Saturday we had the honor of witnessing the wedding of Teddy & Christine. The ceremony was held at the Chapel of Our Lady in the Presdio. I figured this would be a good test for A6000.

Post Halloween Shoot 2014

I’ve tried to shoot them a couple of times as they took off from the Oakland airport during their practice runs. Sunday after we got home from the wedding we made the last minute decision to ferry into the City to photograph the Blue Angels. Like an idiot I thought I would be the only …

Wedding Bells ♫

This past Saturday we witnessed the wedding of Mary Ann (Bunny) & Quan. The ceremony was at the Five Wounds Church. It was a full catholic mass… in Vietnamese. Not wanting to step on the hired photog toes I only shot a couple. Reception was held at the Dolce Hayes Mansion.
